With the sub-stepping technique, the numerical analysis in real-time dynamic hybrid testing is split into the response analysis and signal generation tasks. Two target computers that operate in real-time may be assigned to implement these two tasks, respectively, for fully extending the simulation scale of the numerical substructure. In this case, the integration time-step of solving the dynamic response of the numerical substructure can be dozens of times bigger than the sampling time-step of the controller. The time delay between the real and desired feedback forces becomes more striking, which challenges the well-developed delay compensation methods in real-time dynamic hybrid testing. This paper focuses on displacement prediction and force correction for delay compensation in the real-time dynamic hybrid testing with a large integration time-step. A new displacement prediction scheme is proposed based on recently-developed explicit integration algorithms and compared with several commonly-used prediction procedures. The evaluation of its prediction accuracy is carried out theoretically, numerically and experimentally. Results indicate that the accuracy and effectiveness of the proposed prediction method are of significance.

This paper presents a novel and direct dead time compensation method of the 3 phase inverter using space vector pulse width modulation(SVPWM) topology. In the turn on time calculation of the effective voltage, the dead time effect is directly compensated according to the current direction of the midium voltage reference. Since the turn on time of the effective voltage vector is affected by the dead time, the loss time is compensated to turn on time of the effective voltage vector. And the dead time is added to the calculated voltage vector switching times according to the current direction. For the more effective compensation, the direction of the midium phase current is considered by the practical direction and voltage drops in the power devices. The proposed method can compensate the dead time which is considered feedback error or direction of middle phase current without coordinate transform in added controller. The proposed dead time compensation scheme is verified by the computer simulation and experiments of 3 phase R L load.

We theoretically analyze the properties of nonlinear distortion due to modulation instability (MI), which is a major factor of performance degradation in optical amplified transmission systems, and propose an optical link structure to compensate MI based on the analysis. The proposed MI compensating link structure is composed of optical phase conjugators (OPCs) and dispersion compensating fibers (DCFs) in order to suppress nonlinear effects in optical transmission links. It has been confirmed through computer simulations that the performance of the proposed compensation scheme is superior to that of conventional compensation schemes for 500 km transmission.

The velocity and acceleration of the ground moving target can cause the target position to be displaced and defocused in the SAR image. In this paper, the displacement compensation scheme is presented to correct the displaced position and defocused moving target image in the DPCA based SAR-GMTI system. The influence of the ground moving target due to the velocity and acceleration is analyzed in range and azimuth directions, and its compensation method is presented with the simulation results. The performance of the proposed method is compared with respect to the estimated velocity and defocused quantity in both range and azimuth directions.

This paper presents the improvement of BER performance using fading compensation method for 16 QAM-TCM to reduce the effects of multi-path fading in mobile radio environments. We propose the multi-pilot symbol aided fading compensation technique using Gausian interpolation method for inter-symbol interference or fading distortion occured in frequency selective fading channel. The proposed system is combined coding and modulation scheme for improving the reliability of a digital transmission system without increasing the transmitted power or the required bandwidth. In the fading compensation, the pilot symbols from a known sequence is multiplexed into the data symbols at regular intervals to from a frames for transmission. And we use a modified bit reversal block interleaver to randomize burst errors. The results show that significant improvements in the bit-error rate performances can be achieved by the proposed techniques.

The localization compensation algorithm for moving objects using the least-squares method is suggested and the performance of the algorithm is analyzed in this paper. The suggested compensation algorithm measures the distance values of the mobile object moving as a constant speed by the TMVS (TWR Minimum Value Selection) method, estimates the location of the mobile node by the trilateration scheme based on the values, and the estimated location is compensated using the least-squares method. By experiments, it is confirmed that the localization performance of the suggested compensation algorithm is largely improved to 58.84% and 40.28% compared with the conventional trilateration method in the scenario 1 and 2, respectively.

In this paper, an advanced shift controller that supervises the shift transients with adaptive compensation is presented. Modern shift control systems for vehicle automatic transmission are designe d to provide smooth transients for passengers' comfort and better component durability. In the conventional methods, lots of testing and calibration works have been done to tune gains of the controller, but it does not assure optimum shift quality at all times owing to system variations often caused by uncertainties in shifting hydraulic systems and external disturbances. In the proposed control scheme, an adaptive compensation controller with intelligent supervisor is implemented to achieve improved shift quality over the system variations. The control input pattern which generates clutch pressure commands in hydraulic actuating systems, is updated through a learning process to adjust for each subsequent shift based on continuous monitoring of shifting performance and environmental changes. The proposed algorithm is implemented and evaluated on the experimental test setup. Results from the experimental studies for several operation modes show both improved performance and adaptability of the proposed shift controller to uncertain changes of the shifting environment in vehicle power transmission systems.

A medical malpractice case requires special legal protection, considering its characteristics, such as seriousness and long term effects of its damages, medical information asymmetry between practitioners and patients, and difficulties in realization of liability. Taking the points above into consideration, Medical Malpractice Arbitration Act of 2012(MAA) has legislative intent to protect the rights of the injured from medical malpractice, while protecting the stability of medical practice by providing arbitration as an alternative dispute resolution. However, constitutional review is required for one new scheme of compensation for medical injuries during delivery, which is implemented in MAA of 2012, especially with regard to freedom to exercise occupation, property, equality under the Constitution. Two important aspects are 1. according to the law, absolute liability applies to compensation for damages during delivery without negligence of practitioners; and 2. the practitioner bears some portion of the cost, 30% in the law above. This article aims to analyze this new institution in various aspects of the Constitution, and, as a result, it does not comply with constitutional criteria.

This paper proposes a new motion vector smoothing and motion compensation method to increase the frame rate of videos. The proposed method reduces false motion vector smoothing by improving the weight with reflecting accuracy to overcome the limitation of the conventional motion vector smoothing using the adaptively weighted vector median. Also, to improve the interpolated image quality of the conventional OBMC(Overlapped Block Motion Compensation), a scheme that divides an original block into 4 sub-blocks and then generates the interpolated frame using the reestimated motion vector for each sub-block is proposed. The simulation results prove that the proposed method can provide much better objective and subjective image quality than the conventional method.

The small modular liquid-metal fast reactor (SMFR) is an important component of advanced nuclear systems. SMFRs exhibit relatively low breeding capability and constraint space for control rod installation. Consequently, control rods are deeply inserted at beginning and are withdrawn gradually to compensate for large burnup reactivity loss in a long lifetime. This paper is committed to investigating the impact of control rod compensation operation on core neutronics characteristics. This paper presents a whole core fine depletion model of long lifetime SMFR using OpenMC and the influence of depletion chains is verified. Three control rod position schemes to simulate the compensation process are compared. The results show that the fine simulation of the control rod compensation process impacts significantly the fuel burnup distribution and absorber consumption. A control rod equivalent position scheme proposed in this work is an optimal option in the trade-off between computation time and accuracy. The control position is crucial for accurate power distribution and void feedback coefficients in SMFRs. The results in this paper also show that the pin level power distribution is important due to the heterogeneous distribution in SMFRs. The fuel burnup distribution at the end of core life impacts the worth of control rods.
